The last words our dear Saviour spoke before He died on the cross was ,'It is finished', John 19 v 30,some say it was His triumphant cry,or it is accomplished.In other words He had completed His Father's will, the work of salvation was complete,nothing can be added, nor should be added to it,yet people do. Some of the epistles reveal that there were people who wanted to add to the gospel, the book of Colossians dealt with people who said ,yes you have trusted Christ, but you need something else. CP 2 v 16 - 23 ' . Many great artists are never satisfied with what they do,likewise we may be perfectionist,our best as we see it,is flawed,we always want to do better, we may think that what we do is good ,but we are not satisfied. Christ came into this world to do the Fathers will,to keep the law of God perfectly,and to die on the cross ,that was the will of God for Him,and He did it perfectly,it is blind folly to think you need to do your bit to be saved, you don't,why because Jesus paid it all.
'But God forbid that I should boast
except in the cross of our Lord Jesus
Christ.'
Galatians 6 v 14.
